最近获得了澳大利亚建筑最高住宅奖–2021年罗宾-博伊德奖。(澳大利亚建筑师协会在2022年没有颁发Robin Boyd奖)。

The most recent recipient of the highest residential award for architecture in Australia – The Robin Boyd Award 2021. (the Australian Institute of Architects did not award the Robin Boyd Award in 2022).

试图总结这所房子几乎是不可能的。第一次走进这个空间是很难描述的。它同时给人以古老和现代的感觉。参考资料是如此多样,”它感觉像教堂、城堡、铁路拱门、中东的粮仓”。委托客户的灵感来自于他曾经在罗马尼亚看到的一个19世纪的弹药库,该弹药库由原砖和拱门建成。建筑师参考了Le Corbusier在印度的作品。然而,这显然是一个独特的设计。关键的建筑特征是抛物线形的拱形天花板,这是一个由回收的砖块制成的自支撑结构,有一个3.5米长2.5米宽的椭圆形可伸缩天窗,不上釉,向南倾斜20度,以凝视星星。

To try to summarise this house is virtually impossible. Walking into the space for the first time is difficult to describe. It feels ancient and modern at the same time. The references are so varied, “it feels like a church, a castle, a railway arch, a middle eastern grain store”. The commissioning client was inspired by a 19th-century ammunition bunker he once saw in Romania built of raw brick with arches. The architect references work by Le Corbusier in India. However, it is distinctly a singular design. The key architectural feature is the parabolic vaulted ceiling, a self-supporting structure made of recycled bricks having a 3.5m long by 2.5m wide elliptical retractable skylight that is unglazed and tilted 20 degrees to the south to gaze at the stars.

委托客户、天文学家和工程师Basil Borun要求获奖建筑师Peter Stutchbury在不离开客厅的情况下带他去看星星。

The commissioning client, astronomer, and engineer, Basil Borun asked award-winning architect Peter Stutchbury to take him to the stars without leaving his living room.

在一个不寻常的高耸屋顶上找到天窗的位置,顶点为7.5米。这是一个抛物线型拱顶,是由回收的砖块制成的自支撑结构,其中许多砖块是博伦先生挑选的。被诊断出患有2型糖尿病的巴西尔坐着轮椅,因此设计必须是真正无障碍的。

Finding the location of the skylight in an unusual soaring roof, 7.5m at its apex. It is a parabolic vault, a self-supporting structure made of recycled bricks, many of which were picked by Mr. Borun. Diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, Basil was wheelchair bound and therefore the design has to be truly accessible.

经过反复试验,才找到了天窗的正确尺寸和位置,这样博伦先生就可以看到银河中他最喜欢的星座,包括帕沃。Peter Stutchbury建筑事务所的项目设计师Fernanda Cabral和建筑商Mark Tan拿着天窗的原型剪纸对着天空,直到Borun先生满意为止。轮椅的公差为10毫米,因此任何台阶都不能大于10毫米。房子的设计使博伦先生只需转动一下轮椅就可以从他的汽车到他房子里的任何地方。房间被设计在一个长而宽的走廊上,有滑动门。

It took trial and error to find the right size and spot for the skylight so Mr. Borun could see his favorite constellations in the Milky Way, including Pavo. Peter Stutchbury Architecture’s project designer Fernanda Cabral and builder Mark Tan held cut-outs of prototypes of the skylight up against the sky until Mr. Borun was satisfied. The wheelchair had a tolerance of 10mm, therefore no step could be larger than 10mm. The house was designed so Mr. Borun could go from his car to anywhere in his house with a single turn of the wheelchair. The rooms were designed off a long, wide hallway with sliding doors.

由砖块建成,是悉尼西部的一栋公寓楼被拆除时回收的。拱形的房间让人联想到大教堂,但感觉是拥抱和欢迎,而不是威严。而且是一个家庭规模,尽管是一个特别大的规模。

Built of bricks, recycled when an apartment building in western Sydney was demolished. The vaulted room is reminiscent of a cathedral yet feels embracing and welcoming rather than imposing. And of a domestic scale, albeit an extraordinarily voluminous one.

斯塔奇伯里先生说,很少有一个项目能比白天更考虑到夜晚。”我们在建筑中安装了天窗,但没有以这样一种预言性的和高度考虑的方式。

Mr. Stutchbury said rarely was a project more considerate of the night than day. “We have put skylights in a building but not in such a prophetic and highly considered way.”
